Avs have a chance to go up 3-1 in the series going back to Denver.... A win in game 4 would be absolutely massive and guarantee them two opportunities to win the series on home ice.
If anything they need to double down on playing the game the way they play with speed and skill and not get involved in any "retribution" antics.
If the Blues want to start running around chasing hits and trying to be physical because of an incidental play, let them. They will take penalties, they will take themselves out of plays trying to lay hits(Especially since they aren't normally a particularly physical team anyway, they play somewhat like us) and it will actually create a lot more open ice for the Avs to take advantage of.
The Avs started to dictate the flow of the game again in game 3 from about the 2nd period onward. Even in the 3rd period with the Blues pressing for the tying goal the Avs did a wonderful job limiting chances and pushing for the 2 goal lead again early on... Just come out with high energy and focus on getting the Win, nothing else.
